Do not stay here!
I know hotels in Venice are expensive, but do not stay at this one. In particular, do not book a double room in their 'Annex' and expect a double bed. What you will get is two single beds in a skinny little room with broken furniture and only one working power point. The shared bathroom has a broken shower head, the walls are so thin that you'll be woken up every time the person next door walks, closes the wardrobe or door and while children's school groups are fine, they're not so great when you're trying to sleep and 20 of them are shouting and running about on your floor. What we hoped would be a romantic weekend, was extremely disappointing although did improve once we decided to cut our losses, loose the money we'd paid and leave after one night to stay at another (much much nicer) hotel all together. I just wish I had taken these other bad reviews into consideration when I first booked.

Great location and staff
This is an average hotel with few amenities.. However, it's relatively comfortable, very good location, very friendly staff, and best of all, a great price; five minute walk to Ferrovia water bus stop and train station, 15 minute walk to Piazza de Roma (bus station). Several laptops with internet connection... No English TV stations, no CNN or BBC. Average breakfast

Dining tip:
Short walk from hotel
Dining is expensive in Venice... most restaurants advertising a daily menu deal are a ripoff.... portions are small and beer and wine are usually ridiculously high. Pizzeria near Ferrovia water bus stop, on Lista di Spagna called Ae Oche is a great place.. Very good pizza, pasta, and salads at great prices... Good prices on beer and carafes of house wine as well

Ugly hotel
TV and lamp did not work. Room was very cramped, beds were uncomfortable, the entire building looked very cheap. Pictures were decieving, it may be inexpensive, but try and get a better deal elsewhere. Good location. Venice is beautiful!

Albergo Basilea Hotel, Venice, Italy
The location was fair considering Venice. The room was rediculously small ( about 6 feet wide. ) A sink in the room and none in the bathroom. The room was clean and we were exhausted after a full day of travel.......so we slept well. It was overpriced for what we got.

no internet access in the rooms!!!
In one word, horrible.The details of the hotel say it clearly: "Rooms with Internet access", but there is no such thing.What can you do? Once you get there you're stuck. You have paid in advance to [...]not to the hotel!

We got a room in the annex where the stairs were slightly broken and the room had "facilities" but very run down. The bathroom had a very strong bleach smell as well. For us, it was a room and somewhere to sleep on a busy night in Venice.
